Mt. Gretna Lake & Beach has eight acres of sandy beach, as well as a cool grassy lawn area. Swimming is the key feature here, including a diving board on the wooden docks, a separate high dive, and a water swing. The swimming area is lifeguard-protected. Water tubes, canoes, and kayaks are available for rental, as well as beach chairs.

Occupying the grounds are a sand volleyball court and a children’s playground. Plenty of patrons take advantage of the large shaded picnic areas, or visit the snack bar which offers many favorite items. Planning a birthday party or other group event? Mt. Gretna Lake & Beach provides catering packages which are hosted under a large tented pavilion.

Mt. Gretna Lake & Beach is open from May 24 until Sep 1. The hours are 11:30am-6:30pm.
